PROGRAM:

NAME

fop - Command line wrapper for the java version of fop.

DESCRIPTION

Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) is a print formatter driven by XSL formatting
objects (XSL-FO) and an output independent formatter. It is a Java application that reads
a formatting object (FO) tree and renders the resulting pages to a specified output.
Output formats currently supported include PDF, PS, PCL, AFP, XML (area tree
representation), Print, AWT and PNG, and to a lesser extent, RTF and TXT. The primary
output target is PDF.

SYNOPSIS

fop [options] [-fo|-xml] infile [-xsl file]
[-awt|-pdf|-mif|-rtf|-tiff|-png|-pcl|-ps|-txt|-at [mime]|-print] <outfile>

OPTIONS

-version
print FOP version and exit

-x dump configuration settings

-q quiet mode

-c cfg.xml
use additional configuration file cfg.xml

-l lang
the language to use for user information

-nocs disable complex script features

-r relaxed/less strict validation (where available)

-dpi xxx
target resolution in dots per inch (dpi) where xxx is a number

-s for area tree XML, down to block areas only

-v run in verbose mode (currently simply print FOP version and continue)

-o [password]
PDF file will be encrypted with option owner password

-u [password]
PDF file will be encrypted with option user password

-noprint
PDF file will be encrypted without printing permission

PDF file will be encrypted without extract text and graphics permission

-noassembledoc
PDF file will be encrypted without assemble the document permission

-noprinthq
PDF file will be encrypted without print high quality permission

-a enables accessibility features (Tagged PDF etc., default off)

-pdfprofile prof
PDF file will be generated with the specified profile (Examples for prof: PDF/A-1b
or PDF/X-3:2003)

-conserve
enable memory-conservation policy (trades memory-consumption for disk I/O) (Note:
currently only influences whether the area tree is serialized.)

-cache specifies a file/directory path location for the font cache file

-flush flushes the current font cache file

INPUT

infile xsl:fo input file (the same as the next) (use '-' for infile to pipe input from
stdin)

-fo infile xsl:fo input file

-xml infile
xml input file, must be used together with -xsl

-atin infile
area tree input file

-ifin infile
intermediate format input file

-imagein infile
image input file (piping through stdin not supported)

-xsl stylesheet
xslt stylesheet

-param name value <value> to use for parameter <name> in xslt stylesheet
(repeat '-param name value' for each parameter)

-catalog
use catalog resolver for input XML and XSLT files

OUTPUT

outfile
input will be rendered as PDF into outfile (use '-' for outfile to pipe output to
stdout)

-pdf outfile
input will be rendered as PDF (outfile req'd)

-pdfa1b outfile
input will be rendered as PDF/A-1b compliant PDF (outfile req'd, same as "-pdf
outfile -pdfprofile PDF/A-1b")

-awt input will be displayed on screen

-rtf outfile
input will be rendered as RTF (outfile req'd)

-pcl outfile
input will be rendered as PCL (outfile req'd)

-ps outfile
input will be rendered as PostScript (outfile req'd)

-afp outfile
input will be rendered as AFP (outfile req'd)

-tiff outfile
input will be rendered as TIFF (outfile req'd)

-png outfile
input will be rendered as PNG (outfile req'd)

-txt outfile
input will be rendered as plain text (outfile req'd)

-at [mime] out
representation of area tree as XML (outfile req'd) specify optional mime output to
allow the AT to be converted to final format later

-if [mime] out
representation of document in intermediate format XML (outfile req'd) specify
optional mime output to allow the IF to be converted to final format later

-print input file will be rendered and sent to the printer see options with "-print help"

-out mime outfile input will be rendered using the given MIME type
(outfile req'd) Example: "-out application/pdf D:\out.pdf" (Tip: "-out list" prints
the list of supported MIME types and exits)

-svg outfile
input will be rendered as an SVG slides file (outfile req'd) Experimental feature -
requires additional fop-sandbox.jar.

-foout outfile
input will only be XSL transformed. The intermediate XSL-FO file is saved and no
rendering is performed. (Only available if you use -xml and -xsl parameters)

EXAMPLES

fop foo.fo foo.pdf

fop -fo foo.fo -pdf foo.pdf (does the same as the previous line)

fop -xml foo.xml -xsl foo.xsl -pdf foo.pdf

fop -xml foo.xml -xsl foo.xsl -foout foo.fo

fop -xml - -xsl foo.xsl -pdf -

fop foo.fo -mif foo.mif

fop foo.fo -rtf foo.rtf

fop foo.fo -print

fop foo.fo -awt

FOP Version 1.1

HYPENATION

fop can make use of external hyphenation rules that can be supplied in the form of a
hyphenation jar. You can find such a one at http://offo.sourceforge.net/.

To actually use that, set the FOP_HYPHENATION_PATH environment variable to the full path
of this file, or use configuration files, see below.

CONFIGURATION FILES

fop reads two configuration files on startup: /etc/fop.conf and $HOME/.foprc. These are
plain shell script files where you can define for instance the FOP_HYPHENATION_PATH
variable.

Another way to extend is conf.d/ files. Simply add a configuration file into
/etc/fop.conf.d/my.conf.

JAVA-WRAPPERS NOTE

This program is a shell script wrapper based on java-wrappers(7). You therefore benefit
from several features; please see the java-wrappers(7) manual page for more information
about them.
